I was thinking of going with an Intelligence group, but it looks like someone beat me to it. Before I make another sheet: Are we allowed to make a General in charge of a mechanized group? It's about the only thing that hasn't been done. The NCR has a mechanized group, so vehicles ARE a thing in the Fallout world. I would absolutely understand if I had to keep the numbers relatively low, though. If I am allowed to do that, then I'm officially calling dibs and will probably write something up soon.

The NCR may a mechanised group, but the Yakima Republic is years behind them as far as technological development is concerned. That's why we're relying on a motley crew of mismatching former organisations to propel its war machine. And I'm not even sure what kind of vehicles the NCR will be fronting, as I imagine main battle tanks are a farcry from even their situation, and all I can find references to are salvaged U.S army trucks. 

My concern about vehicles, is that the Great War was caused by the depletion of resources... resources which were used to power these kinds of things, I would have thought. So now we're two hundred years into a broken future, with drained resources, trying to rebuild with whatever we can find. I'm not dead set against the idea, but I would like some plausible justification for an armoured personnel carrier rofling around the countryside.

But LancerDancer will have fallen very low to assume he/she/it knows best. Does anyone have any input they want to add to the vehicle question?

If you want to be that kind of thing, and get away with it, why not opt for good old fashioned horses? I'm not talking about charging into battle atop a horse, but rather, using them to manoeuvre quickly around the battlefield. A rapid response unit, in a way. I think that's how the British Dragoons operated, unless Empire Total War lied to me, the slut that it was.

I was going to stop you where you were, as I'm unfavourable to the idea of a fully functional vanilla BOS organisation operating under the YR. However, I'll see what your army's origins has to say for itself, before I go stomping my big feet all over the show.
